Interested in locating doctos in the Houston area that will do fills for paitents that have been banded in Mexico.

Any information would be appreceiated.

I really don't know, but you could try Dr. Spivak. I don't know if he would do it or not. When I was considering being banded by Dr. Rumbaut in Monterrey, he told me that Dr. Spivak wanted to do fills for his patients, but that Spivak's hospital wouldn't let him. You could call to see if this is still the case. I heard a rumor that he was now able to do them.

I called both his offices this morning and NEITHER are doing fills for other doctors-bummer.He is only doing fills for his existing patients so I gather that some of you were the lucky ones who had already gotten your foot in the door before he got to busy.Oh well.Im gonna do some cold calling today and see I what I can find more locally.I will post if I find some Houston doctors.
